Rider Experiences

"Bike the Barns, not just being a beautiful ride, also stopping at various farms where rest stops are staged, riders learn a lot about different farming in the state of New York. Farmers and staff always welcome the riders with open arms and their enthusiasm and being proud of their land."

"Bike the Barns is both professionally organized AND down to earth and accessible. I felt very welcome and comfortable throughout the ride and I loved supporting these small, local, hard working farms while cruising through some of the prettiest roads in the state. Well done!"

"My 13-year-old daughter completed the Barns on a 1x7 with 24-inch wheels - It really is for everybody!"
